Ian has helped me deal and unpack a lot of shadow and deepseated shame. It was a journey and he has been very patient and very knowledgeable in helping me uncovering and heal.

It’s only been 3 sessions with Ian, but he’s really helping me with self discovery in ways my mind couldn’t do on its own. Identifying childhood traumas and how it effects my adulthood subconsciously. Always recommending ways to feel better, suggesting exercises and books that would support the healing process. I look forward to more sessions with Ian.
